This self-guided Adventure is perfect for last-minute travelers who love animals and games, and for families traveling with kids! Travelers will use the eATLAS app for directions on where to go, and what to do--map included. You can start and pause the Adventure whenever it is convenient for you. The Lincoln Park Zoo is a 35-acre complex with 200 different species from around the world, and features more than 1,100 animals, as well as programs devoted to conservation, environmental protection and education. Every December, ZooLights brings thousands of visitors to see the zoo at night festively decorated for the holiday season. And it’s all just a few miles north of downtown Chicago! There are eight objectives in our scavenger hunt, encompassing the entire grounds of the zoo, which includes the Nature Boardwalk and Farm-in-the-Zoo. The zoo is open 365 days a year, from 8 AM to 5 PM on the weekdays and 8 AM to 7 PM on holidays. There is no charge for admission.

Just did the Lincoln Park Zoo Adventure! Totally recommend it!

I took my kids to the Lincoln Park Zoo Adventure last weekend, and it was such a blast! The eATLAS app made it super easy to navigate. We loved the scavenger hunt part especially, where we had to find different animals. The whole zoo is really beautiful, and it’s awesome that admission is free. We wrapped up just before closing, so we missed ZooLights, but I definitely want to come back for that next time. Anyone else done this yet?

Thinking of gifting the Lincoln Park Zoo Adventure!

I'm looking for a unique gift for my niece's birthday and stumbled upon the Lincoln Park Zoo Adventure. It sounds perfect for her! She loves animals and is super curious. I just wonder if the app is easy for kids to use. Anyone have experience with that?
